"TO-MORROW, AND TO-MORROW"

Macedonius (Third Century A.D.)

"To-morrow I will look on thee,"—but that never comes for us, while the accustomed putting-off ever grows and grows. This is all thy grace to my longing; and to others thou bearest other gifts, despising my faithful service. "I will see thee at evening." And what is the evening of a woman's life?—old age, full of a million wrinkles.
